Yeh,we are a grammar school so we get quite a lot of oxbridge people really :smile: a lot of the teachers went there too.


Ahh cool we're a comprehensive...(that's the one where you don't pay isn't it?) but we have an amazing careers office :tongue:

Yep, our school is free unless you want to board, which is fair enough really. Had first exam today (general studies) only 9 more to go now :s-smilie:

Here I totally agree with you. This is how the discussion goes normally.

Interested Friend: Where are you going to uni?
Me: Possibly, fingers crossed, if I get the grades, if I'm really lucky, if nothing goes ludicrously wrong, then, in a perfect world...Oxford.

That's me on a good day when I'm feeling fairly confident.:redface:


Oh god please don't.
This was me every day until yesterday when my RS exam went tits up due to me not knowing that they could ask me a question on that topic!!!! :angry::angry::angry::confused::cry2:

So now I just say Leeds.
Eep, I have 2 exams at the end of this week and I'm so scared. I don't seem to have got into a motivated mindset at ALL this exam season, I'm sure I've not done enough work and have left everything too late...and I really don't think I'm going to get an A in French :cry2:
